Work for Next Meeting
- Finish rewiring & testing practice bot
- Install DS software uptate
- Continue robot code, test shooter/elevation. Also test working camera + LED ring on a real driving robot!
- Work on vision processing
- Faster this is done the more testing we can do with the shooting
- Find best way to see/modify camera settings. Play with brightness/exposure/etc. to get the best isolation of targets in imagebefore GRIP gets ahold of the stream. Then adjust GRIP file to make the best use of that.
- On some websites, they connect the video to the HSV filter twice so that there are two intervals for each. Might want to check this out.
- Need to SSH in and shutdown Pi nicely when disabled or match over.
- Find good settings for mjpg-streamer (Look into the fork)
- keep optimizing (It seems that brightness and contrast being near zero works extreemly well
- Get second RPi spun up and tested with GRIP, mjpeg-streamer, etc. for practice bot
- Catch Beta up to Alpha Pi 2.
- Check on spike supply and maybe order more
- Work on wiring of RGB LEDs
- Look at Nolan's new and improved controls list
